Supposed Giants.

Long ago, and, In fact, In almost every
period OF human history, we find reference to
giants, supposed human beings OF enormous
size; and so complete and serious are the dis
cusslons and measurements In many of the
old histories and scientific works that there
can be no doubt as to the good faith Of the
writers. In the tenth. eleventh and twelfth
centuries some Of the most important contro-
yerses among the wise men were In relation
TO these ''Gnds" or discoveries, which, 1t Is
needless to say, were not what they were
supposed to be--though certainly giants.
About the middle OF the eleventh century
the scientific world Of Europe was thrown in
TO great excitement by the report that the
body of Pallas, the son Of Eyander, had been
discovered under the tomb Of Emperor Henry
III. The bones were of immense Size, and the
finders njectured that If placed together the
figure would stand as high ms the walls Of
Rome This story was received by the in
credulous; but later the remains were shown
TO be those OF fossil elephanta giant in
deed but not human one.
In the fifteenth century numbers of fossil
elephants were discovered, which, with hardly
an exception, were considered giants, and one
Louis Kill, caused more controversy than
any subject political or scientific, OF the
time All classes OF scientific men were ar
rayed against each other, the two parties be
ing divided as to whether the bones were those
of an elephant or the giant Teutobochus.
Later In 1871 the inhabitants OF Lucerne,
Switzerland, announced to the world that a
giant had been discovered In their precincts.
The announcement was made by dis
tInguished man OF science, Prof Felix Platter,
Of Baele, who examined the remains by order
of the council and reported as above; and
forthwith the eminent professor was request
ed to make a design OF the giant restored.
which he did, giving the figure of man
about 20 feet in height, and this the proud
populace adopted TO support the arms OF their
city. The design aud some Of the bones can
still be seen in the College of Jesuts AT
Lucerne. But when Rhumenbach examined
the bones he Immediately pronounced them
those OF an elephant, much TO the lnortifica-
ton Of some, while Others held out for the

Playing with Fire.

II is TO he regretted that some Of our con.
temporaries intcrpose doubts as to the expo
dlency of John Most's arrest. The UerdId
goes so far as to publish the following:
"To punish the uttcrancc Of unpopular opin-
ions before these hayc actHaHy led 10 noe"ce is
not as we believe, in accordance with American
ideas OF liberty 1t is setting dangerous
precedent"
The most dangerous precedent" that can
he set In any community Is to suffer laws eif'
acted for the public safety to be violated with
impunity The law makes II an ofIense for an
assembly Of persons numbering three or more
to propose TO carry out any purpose In such a
manner as 10 disturb the public peace, or Ia
ATTEMPT or threaten any act tending towards q
breach of the peace or an injury to person or
propcrty The law also makes 1t an otlens
for any person to wilfuly and wrongiulll
commit an act which seriously dislurbs or en-
dangers the public peace.
If these laws are wrong or In violation OF
any popular right they ought to be repealed.
While they are on the statute book they ought
to be enforced.
But are they wrong. What right Of the peo-
pie do they violate. They certainly do mol
'punish the utterancc OF unpopular opin

purposes in a manner which disturbs the pub

My hand became raw and horrffying,
compelling me to keep it covered all the

preparations, but instead of benefitting my
condition, they all seemed to stimulate and
encourage the progress of the miserable dis
ease, until had about given up all hope.

Advice to Housewives.
Don't entice flies into your cook room by
leaving little milk in one cup and grease in
another between meals Scald your tin
vessels with I've water. Wash your table
ware in soapsuds and rinse them in water
slightly blue. Keep handy piece Of sand
paper to rub your steel knives. Put your
silver spoons, knives and forks in a white
flannel sack containing powdered chalk.
Don't make a fire in your back yard every
three months for the purpose of burning up
your old clothes. Tear them in strips one
half inch wide, sew together firmly and
smoothly; wind them into balls. Have your
husband make you two wooden knitting
needles, thirty inches long, cast on your
stitches in the usual manner for knitting
plain cloth, knit back and forth until you get
a rug of any desired length. Spread them
around your cook stove. Take fifteen cents
and buy you brush for cleaning the handles
Of your cups, stands, etc. Dirt settled around
the handles Of tableware looks nasty Brush
back your hair and see that your collar is
properly adjusted before sitting down to do
the honors Of the table. If you don't feel
pleasant see if you can't assume a pleasant
appearance at the table; nothing looks better.
Don't feed your company on apologies;
give them something more substantial. Be
fore going out shopping know what you want
and the quality of the same; don't pull and
haul over every piece Of goods in the store.
II you are not good judge of the article
you want frankly tell your merchant so and
request him to select it for you. As rule
all women are not judges of shoes or kid
gloves. If you can afford but one fine article
of clothing let that he a pair Of shoes. Don't
wear a fifty cent collar, seventy-five cent
pair Of shoes and twenty-five cent pair of
gloves with dress that cost Sl.50 per yard.
Let your whole suit correspond in quality.
Don't put $40 bureau in your parlor and
have a set OF rawhide bottom chairs to go
with it.
Don't entertain your visitors by lamenting
over your inferior help or by not having any
at all. Hire your help by the year and pay
them q salary sufficient TO keep them. You
had better pay Sl2 per month for good help
than S. for inferior. Don't hire inferior help
IL you believe in falling from grace-Chi-
